Default strong steering servo

I am looking for a strong steering servo. It doesn't have to be stupid fast, just fast enough. When I say strong, I mean more likely to survive crashes.

What do you recommend?

I am very prone to crashes... when I used a metal geared servo with a torque of 15kg (forgot the exact unit) from my crawler.... I no longer worry about it.

BTW get a good servo saver.

+1 to the servo saver.. it saves your... servo.

Not all High Torgue Metal Gears are created equal.

You do get what your pay for 99% of the time.

You didn't however state what you plan to put this into.
a strong servo for a 1/10 scale carpet car is going to cost alot less then say for a 1/8th Off road Truggy.

Either way, I love the Associated 1015.
